Script v2 sensor JSON output schema
This is the JSON schema that the Script v2 sensor verifies the script output against:
- For more information about JSON schema, see http://json-schema.org/.
- For a list of JSON schema validators to check your script output, see https://json-schema.org/implementations.html#validator under Web (Online).
- The JSON schema contains all relevant limitations for the values that you can use in your scripts. For example, that the character limit for messages is 2,000 characters. In the schema, this is reflected as follows:
"message": {
"description": "A string that the sensor shows as sensor message.",
"type": "string",
"maxLength": 2000
},
